    Really neat to see DLIII get one. Figured it almost had to be him when the crowd roared in the distance for nearly two solid minutes in a live shot.

    Great thread!

    One of my favorite weeks of the entire year. As a golfer, a fan, and someone who loves outside, it's about as good as it gets.

    I've got a brisket on today for the event, and all of us boys in the house have our masters polos and hats on.

    I've been fortunate enough to attend 4 masters, and all during the weekend rounds. I enjoyed the grounds yesterday, which despite the windy weather, was fantastic all the way around. Loved seeing the players really challenged.

    Also was blessed enough to get Berckmans Place badges again this year- I'm always blown away by the level of attention and detail, and service they provide. The food, the drinks, and service. The replica greens with the caddies showing you were the players are putting to that days hole location, it's insane, and all for just a weeks time of entertainment is mind blowing to me.

    I enjoy watching it at home mostly, you see a bit more golf in many cases, but it's perfect going on Saturday, and then home on Sunday to watch the final round in the comfort of my own home, with my family, and some good beer.

    Happy final rd, guys- enjoy it!

    Someone please get Spieth some new grips or tell him to please pick up the pace. It's cool, his hands can't be sweating that much. I know they're playing for a lot of money and there's swirling winds, but it is excruciating waiting for him to pull the trigger.

    Spieth was hit with a slow play warning earlier in the week. He is a tad slow compared to fast players but he's not slow. 

    Hard to argue his success though. We are watching something as good or better than when tiger dismantled Augusta back in the early 2000s

    Jordan asks for the cameras not to show his face???? Give me a freaking break.... That's a Bubba move.

    It was a great day. Weather was nice, looked like a runaway but that all changed in a hurry. The roars from 16 were fun with all the aces and chip ins. We had a blast.

    What a day. Unfortunately my daughter had a soccer game today at 4:30.  Not even Sunday at the Masters can keep me away from my daughter.  I have it DVR'd and will enjoy watching it for the next year. 
    Happy for Willett.  He's the best golfer nobody knows about.  Would have also liked to see Dustin pull through as well. 
    It was fun hearing the roars from 16 during the telecast.

    The guy just blows a huge lead in the Masters and is rightly upset.  He asks the camera man to not get right in his face.  To me the total BS move was made by the camera man- give the kid some breathing room. What is it he was trying to capture? To see if he would break down?

    he is 22 years old and handled the post round interview with more class than I have seen from many after something catastrophic happens.

    Yeah he's insanely slow. Penalized in Dubai in January and should have been penalized at the Masters. The rule is 40 seconds with a 20 second extension in certain circumstances. His slow play would have penalized if he wasn't a superstar.

    I hate to say it as I know that the last 3 years have been a great ride for the young man and his caddy, but it's time for Spieth to get a real guy on the bag. No caddy worth his salt would have let him take two shots on 12 from a spot that they didn't know the exact yardage. You and me on the links, sure, but not final round of a major. 

    Hopefully a learning experience for both of them because I don't think Jordan is going to change his caddy now. I still wonder what would have happened if Tiger had just stuck with Butch and Fluff.
